The I in Us with Grant Martinson 26 June 2025


Listen Later

On this episode Paul and Cody welcome intersex ally Grant Martinson to the show. Heralding from the West Canadian province of Saskatchewan, Grant has been on a lifelong path of exploration—of body, energy, gender, and sexuality. During this journey Grant met someone who was intersex. Their conversations stirred something within him and while he’s never sought to find out if he too is intersex, the conversations did make him wonder, what if, through shame or fear or survival, he too was intersex but had held it all down?

Whether Grant is intersex or not, his story gives rise to questions we can all ask. Beyond the physical, in what other ways do our sex characteristic manifest in our life, and how do they shape our life path, sense of self and understanding of who we are, and why we exist.

Also, to commence the show, Executive Director of InterAction for Health Human Rights, Morgan Carpenter launched a new periodical segment of The I in Us – “In Intersex News” – when Morgan will offer updates on local and international events and achievements in intersex advocacy.
